Geno's owner Joey Vento, the grandson of Italian immigrants, said he has no plans to remove the sign.
"I don't see why I should have to. It's freedom of speech," said Vento...

I think this is pretty self obvious. The guy wants to run his buisness in english, and thats a great way to garner some buisness.

This is so stupid.

We have illegal immigrants from Albania, Africa, China the middle east, Afghanistan, Turkey- you name it.

God Bless

Yeah, refusing to leave seems to be a problem here too. I guess its to hard to acctually take them to the border when we deport them.
